Atlantis

For this slab-built seven sided pyramidal figure, I was inspired by the ancient architecture of Egypt and the idea of the lost city of Atlantis. I combined the two by modifying the traditonal 4-sided pyramid and adding my inverted scales to evoke the depths of the ocean. The blue-green glaze reflects the mossy, yet timeless look that I imagine the Lost City to have. I chose this because because it showcases my textures and color very well,while still remaining simple and tasteful. My goal for this piece is to renew the childish sense of wonderment and endless curiosity for all those who look at it.
